Me too @rockandroll
However I have rid myself of the super cheap stuff that was piling up, like the Firefly I just sold to a friend. But I have got to say that guitar punched so high above its price bracket.
I also got rid of a Squier that was kind of iffy, and a Guitar Fetish guitar that was a wreck when I got it. The bushings for the bridge and tailpiece were lifting, and it had a big piece of paint missing. I got it for free and rehabbed it. It looked like a brand new guitar when I was done. That guitar was pure profit when I sold it the other day.
I also sold an Ovation too. Yesterday.
I do have some really nice MIC and MII guitars that aren't cheap or low quality.
I have an Epiphone Greeny Les Paul. It wasn't cheap. I bought it because it was better spec'd than the Gibson version, which I was considering, and I liked it more. The fact that it cost less than half of the price of the Gibson, was just a bonus.
On the other hand, I just got a custom color Gibson SG Standard a few months ago that was just $150 more than the Epi Greeny. I'm all about bang for the buck. As with any brand of guitar, you will eventually reach a point where as the cost goes up, the extra quality and features get to be a diminishing return.
